La Plata Station, displayed on this high-definition live webcam, was built in 1945 (to replace the existing one from 1887 that was already deteriorated) in the city of La Plata, in the U.S. state of Missouri. As an Amtrak train station (Amtrak is a fast railroad service for passengers, providing medium and long distances in the U.S.), it connects La Plata, with about 1300 inhabitants, to the rest of the country in no time.
